A Former BBC Director-General says 'no problem' if the BBC Chair is a member of the ruling party.

Former BBC Director-General Greg Dyke tells Andrew Marr says he finds 'no problem' if the Chairperson of the BBC is a member of the ruling party, following revelations over the weekend that the current chair of the BBC Richard Sharp had failed to declare helping then-PM Boris Johnson ‘simply connect’ with someone to secure a loan guarantee agreement during his appointment process. It was revealed over the weekend that Sharp had not declared helping the PM meet someone to guarantee an £800,000 loan for him. Andrew also focuses on Conservative Party Nadim Zahawi as pressure grows on the Prime Minister to sack him over his 'careless' tax dispute with HMRC.
